My poor Matilda was pottying very frequently on Sunday, and yesterday I took her in for the UTI screening. I opted for the full culture (just to be safe), but the results won't be at my vet until tomorrow. What can I do to keep her comfortable in the mean time?
She doesn't seem to be in any pain, just a little more restless than usual. She also keeps peeing her crate - I launder all her bedding and she pees in it an hour later. I decided to leave bedding in (as opposed to just the pan) because I don't want her to get soaked in pee if she has another accident. She is very unhappy with it, but I don't know what else to do - no matter what I put in there, she doesn't tell me when she has to pee, and gets it everywhere. She's also peeing all over the house, even though I take her outside every 30 minutes.
I have been giving her lots of love and treats and we've had plenty of playtime to distract her (she is playing and acting completely normally), but is there anything I can do to make her more comfortable until her vet calls?
Are UTIs very common in bully pups? I've never had a dog (and I grew up with lots of them!) that had one before.
